New Mexico: Abandoned towns

Across America, there are abandoned towns where factories have closed or the only source of the economy moved out of the town.  As a result, many of these towns have been deserted or left with only residual populations.  Below is the town of Encino, New Mexico that had a population of 94 in the 2000 census, according to wikipedia.   The town used to be a stop-off point for truckers traveling across the state until a larger highway was built north of the town, which caused truckers to now take a different path.  As you can see below, many buildings have been left abandoned in Encino.
